Others have methods, and check out the MC substitutes thread for a few recipes with other items or possible uses, go HereOrigami_Hunt wrote: I think last time I used one tablespoon in one pint of water. But don't worry, if this is not enough you can add a second layer of MC or concentrate your solution adding more MC. This is enough for about four or five sheets, depending on size and on the method you use. For double tissue is enough to line up the two sheets and cover them with MC. The same for a single sheet.

Paint it with MC.
Lay the second tissue sheet.
